General description
Cyclen is a microcyclic tetramine that can be used as a ligand that forms a co-ordination linkage with the surface metal cations. It can be used as a synthetic precursor. It can be prepared by S-alkylation of dithiooxamide with an excess amount of bromoethane.
Application
Cyclen is an azamocrocycle, which can be used in the development of fluorescent nanosensors for the detection of metal ions.

A new cyclen derivative L, bearing a methyl-chromeno-pyridinylidene hydrazone moiety, was synthesized and studied in MeOH, as potential fluorescent "OFF-on-ON" sensors for Zn(ii). Photophysical properties of this ligand being PET regulated, L was only weakly emissive in the absence of

Several 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane (cyclen)-based linear (3a-c) and cross-linked (8a-d) polymers containing biodegradable ester or disulfide bonds were described. These polymeric compounds were prepared by ring-opening polymerization from various diol glycidyl ethers. The molecular weights of the title polymers were measured by

Differences in tissue pH can be diagnostic of cancer and other conditions that shift cell metabolism. Paramagnetic probes are promising tools for pH mapping in vivo using magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) as they provide uniquely shifted MR signals that change
